Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Engine light was coming on & off. After a couple days, the Outlook had a loss of power. Had it checked & was told we had a timing issue with the 3 timing chains. The chains were stretched & one of the timing chain gears was one tooth off. They needed to be replaced. I was also told that there was a recall on the 2007-2009 Saturn outlooks for the same problem but the 2010 models were not included. Why wouldn't the 2010 models be included? The loss of power happened on 9/30/16. Check engine light was coming on & off just a couple days prior to the loss of power.”
